in reply to Perl scripts to do extraction into Sybase
However, if you just wish to interpret them, there are several
things you could do... The easiest would be simply to try to
track down whomever wrote them originally and see if you can get them
to explain it to you. Sometimes author's will put an email address
in the headers of a script so they can be contacted if bugs are found.
short of that, you could learn perl, which, even if you had someone
sit down and explain to you what the script did, is the only real
way you're ever going to be able to actually understand
the script. Perl isn't an easy language to learn if you have
no expirence, but its a very valueable thing to know.
